Chapter 296: The Underground River in Breeze Town
Today, Weifeng Town is one of the rare sunny days, which is one of the rare weather for the Huayu Empire. It is also one of the few good weather for the merchants of the Huayu Empire. Because no matter how used to raining weather, it will eventually reduce people going out, so those vendors will still reduce their business. But as long as the weather is clear and there are more people coming out, it is also the best time for vendors and merchants to do business.
But today is the long-lost Breeze Town, but there are almost no pedestrians on the streets, and there are not many hawkers doing business. The vendors who opened shops also look sleepy, and the business seems to be like not doing it.
Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifan were walking on the street. Looking at the people on the street, they sighed helplessly. It was unnecessary to think about it. This place should have been a prosperous street, but because of the death, there were fewer ordinary townsmen taking the streets or merchants opening shops. The originally prosperous streets also became so lifeless.
"Go quickly." Lu Shuangyang patted Chen Feifan's back, because Chen Feifan looked at the only few people on the street and was a little confused. "It's useless to just watch here. Only by solving the problem quickly can you help them."
"I know." Chen Feifan came back to his senses. He was naturally very clear about the solution to the problem, but looking at these people who were eroded by death, he couldn't help but think of his deceased master.
The two of them soon arrived at the center of the town, which was a small square, which should have been used by the town when it was used to hold festivals and other activities.
And in the center of this town, there is a conspicuous wellhead. The wellhead is a circle with a diameter of about one and a half meters.
Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifan walked to the wellhead and looked up at the top of the well. Both of them had good eyesight. Although the well was very deep and dark inside, they could still see it at a glance.
Jingshen was as said before by the waiter. This was indeed a dry well. The walls of the well had accumulated a lot of dust. If the waiter had not said that water had sprayed here four months ago, Lu Shuangyang would not have imagined that there had been water here recently.
"Go down and take a look." Lu Shuangyang turned over and jumped down without thinking. Although he could see the bottom when standing at the wellhead, many details should be found below.
Chen Feifan also understood Lu Shuangyang's meaning. He looked around first and confirmed that no one around noticed them, so he also jumped down.
"Bang!"
The two of them came to the bottom of the well... The reason why there was water in the well was naturally because there was an underground river channel under the well. Now the underground river channel is still there, but there is no water anymore, and there is only a dry road left.
"Are there any clues?"
In this dry underground river, the two had been exploring with torches for a long time, but still did not find any valuable clues.
"Although it's certain that there was water flowing here about a few months ago, I can only confirm this matter and no other matter can be reasoned out." Lu Shuangyang was also helpless. He thought there would be many clues, but from the current situation, it seemed that it was a waste of time.
"Wait a minute, Lu Shuangyang." Lin Yin suddenly whispered when Lu Shuangyang walked aside.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yin spoke at this time, and he probably found something. Lu Shuangyang also walked away and asked Lin Yin in a low voice.
Lin Yin said: "There are some problems with the wall about five meters to your right."
"What's the problem?" Lu Shuangyang walked over and looked at it, and it seemed that there was no problem.
"It's hard to see just looking." Lin Yin said seriously, "You
Touch there, and touch other places.”
Lu Shuangyang did not ask much, but touched the wall there first as Lin Yin said, and then touched other places.
"This is..." Lu Shuangyang was stunned, "The feel of the wall here seems a little different from that in other places."
The feel of the hand in other places is very smooth, while the walls here are relatively rough.
"Come and see." Lu Shuangyang called Chen Feifan over.
Chen Feifan also touched the walls here and compared them with other walls, and felt that the walls here felt a little rougher than the ones elsewhere.
"It looks the same, but the feel is different. Why is this happening..." Chen Feifan asked in confusion.
Lu Shuangyang thought for a moment: "I probably understand that this is a river channel. After years of water flow, the walls here should have become very smooth, but this place is different from other places. The only reason is that it was added here later."
"I added it later?"
"Yes." Lu Shuangyang smiled confidently, "It is normal for underground rivers to crisscross and there are forks. There should have been a passage here, but now it is blocked."
"That is to say, there is a mystery behind this stone wall?"
"It should be. Do you want to penetrate it?" Lu Shuangyang looked at Chen Feifan with inquiring eyes.
After all, I don’t know what will be greeted behind the wall.
"Hehe." Chen Feifan chuckled a few times, "I've all come here, so there is no room for retreat."
As he said that, Chen Feifan slowly raised his fist, and a powerful mysterious energy condensed on it.
"boom!"
Chen Feifan punched him.
At first, the stone wall did not change much, but with Chen Feifan's fist as the center, the tiny cracks quickly spread around.
"KaKaKa..."
Looking at the slowly cracked stone wall, Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifan became nervous. What would be waiting for them behind?
"Kaku..."
"drop!"
A drop of water fell down on the cracks in the stone wall.
"Is it..."
Noting the drop of water, Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifan immediately guessed what was behind the stone wall.
"boom!"
The wall that was slowly cracking collapsed instantly... On the other side of the stone wall was a river without dryness. Originally, the stone wall was used to block the water from flowing to prevent the water from flowing to this side. Now that the stone wall collapsed, the water was pouring over and over.
"Wow!"
Because the incident happened suddenly, Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifan were both swallowed up into the flood, and even choked a few sips of water in the flood, but both of them were people with certain experience and cultivation. After a few embarrassment, they quickly floated to the water.
"It's okay!" Lu Shuangyang asked.
Chen Feifan pulled out the water that flowed into his nose and said, "It's okay, it's just that this water is a bit hard to drink."
"Uh." Lu Shuangyang was speechless.
The water flows very fast now, and the two of them had to use their mysterious energy to keep themselves from being washed away by the rapid water flow.
The two looked at the newly opened passage, which was pitch black inside and could not see clearly the situation inside.
"Do you want to go in and take a look?" Chen Feifan asked. He originally planned to go and take a look, but now he is inside.
It's a bit troublesome if it's water. After all, it's so dark inside, and you can't carry a torch now, so it's hard to detect any danger.
Lu Shuangyang thought for a while: "Go, we've all walked here..."
"Listen to you." Since Lu Shuangyang said so, Chen Feifan naturally did not object.
...
On the ground, in the square in the center of Weifeng Town, the dry well that gushed out of water four months ago again shot out a water column about ten meters high... People were about to forget what happened four months ago.
"What's going on?"
"Why is there spraying water again?"
"Why do you care about so much? Why not sleep more."
"That's right, it's not my business, I'll sleep more."
"What's going on... Did that guy really go there last night? That's a problem! He has to stop them."
In Weifeng Town, many people noticed the dry and squirting water, but almost everyone was indifferent. Only one of them showed a strange look at this phenomenon. He did not ignore it like others, but walked quietly towards the central square.
...
The height of the water column can be seen even several miles away, and the two men in black in the woods to the east naturally noticed the water column.
"What's going on here again? First, the dead spirit was filled with death, but now it's like this one." A man in black couldn't help but complain.
Another man in black looked at him impatiently: "Stop talking so much nonsense, hurry up and find out the reason for the matter."
"Okay, listen to you."
...
In the underground river, Lu Shuangyang and Chen Feifan were moving against the current. Although I guessed that there might be some noise on the ground, and the mastermind behind probably discovered them, the matter has come to this point. Just solve the problem before the mastermind behind arrived.
Although they really want to move forward quickly, although both of them are masters, they are not very familiar with things like moving forward in the water. After all, the previous practices and battles were carried out on land.
"Can you think of a way? If this continues, we have not arrived at the destination yet, and the mastermind behind the scenes have set up traps waiting for us." Chen Feifan said helplessly.
Lu Shuangyang had no choice: "No, the water level here is too high. Even if the ice condenses on the surface of the water, we cannot move forward... let's swim forward obediently!"
"I hate swimming!"
Although the two complained repeatedly, they still worked hard to make progress in the area.
After swimming for a few minutes, I saw a little purple light in front of me.
The two of them immediately increased their speed and swam in that direction...
A fork in front of the road is used, and on one side is land. The hole here becomes relatively high for people to walk on, and the other is a waterway, which still has to go against the current.
The two walked onto the land, and the light just now came from inside...
...
On the ground, a man in black jumped down from a stream beside the village, and this person was naturally the mastermind behind it.
